Interview with Richard Kearney on Anatheism: Returning to God after God, by Richard Kearney
Abstract
Has the passing of the old God paved the way for a new kind of religious project, a more responsible way to seek, sound, and love the things we call divine? Has the suspension of dogmatic certainties and presumptions opened a space in which we can encounter religious wonder anew? Situated at the split between theism and atheism, we now have the opportunity to respond in deeper, freer ways to things we cannot fathom or prove. the passing of the old God paved the way for a new kind of religious project, a more responsible way to seek, sound, and love the things we call divine?
